The Institute of Internal Auditors Presents: All Things Internal Audit

In this episode, Pam Strobel Powers and Mark Maraccini discuss The IIA's recently updated Global Practice Guide Auditing Procurement in the Public Sector. They walk through the three pillars that make public sector procurement unique, explain how to distinguish a vendor from a subrecipient, and share why fraud risk in procurement deserves its own lane in your audit approach.
